Would depend on how heavily we beat plzen at home would it not?
Nope, if we are level on points with Bayern then it goes entirely on our head to head record against them, and I assume if we won 2-0 at their place they would have the better away goals, hence I assume we need to score at least 3 (unless they drop points in Moscow)

not bothered, so long as in a few weeks we can have a thread about who we want to play in the Quarter Final

Our biggest disadvantage is us having to play the second leg of the next round away and I just feel with our very little experience as a club at this stagewe have no chance if you ask me.
All that I ask for in this competiton now is to try and win our remaining group games, especially Bayern if possible because if anything it is our big game winning mentality that we are lacking in the Champions League, then in the knockout rounds I just hope we put a good good performance in and not make it too easy for whichever team we face.
If we go through to the quarter finals I will start getting giddy, but I just feel our lack of big game performances in the competiton will let us down, that and our defence.

Barca are my second team and, although there would be no division of loyalty, I'd prefer not to play them yet. I do want to see us play them at some point in the not too distant future but it can wait until next season.
I think Barca and Bayern are the two best teams in the competition and along with Real are the only teams that I would surprised to beat.
Really,I think nowadays we stand a good chance against any team in the world .Especially if we go into the match with the correct mentality !sam-caddick said:I can't see Bayern losing in Moscow so unless we pull off a miracle in Germany and win 3-0 it looks like we are going to play either one of Barcelona, Madrid, Atletico or PSG, maybe Dortmund or Napoli if they manage to top that group.
